Re: [Avid-L2] DNxIO capture Dual Link SDI

 

I assume your source is an SR Deck?  Not that the source matters given you can see it in BM media express.  I just updated my system to Avid's version of Desktop Software 10.9.6.  My Avid is 8.5.3 right now and I plan to go to 8.6.4 for compatibility with my main client.

What version of of Avid and Video Desktop are you on?  What OS Mac or PC.  I've been mac centric for too long to be up on PC quirks in this regard.

When you day you went back to single link are you trying a standard HD source? 

When reinstalling software it should be Avid first then video desktop.  I've also found that the capture tool doesn't automatically select the DNxIO on the video side.  Mine came up with DNxIO for audio but none on the video.  I had to use the pull down menu to select DNxIO.

I even uninstalled and reinstalled media composer and the DNxIO software and nada.  So now I'm doing a Time Machine recover of the entire system to a point yesterday before I even thought of trying to capture dual link.  Grrrr.

So I tried all of that, except for the Avid project set to 444RGB.  I intended to try that this morning after you mentioned it.  But guess what,…  I get in and now Media Composer won't even see single link through the DNxIO.  Blackmagic Media Express still does, but not Media Composer.  

UGH!!!!

In the desktop video setup control panel click the light grey circle with a document looking logo in it.  It's right under Artist DNxIO type.  Video Output Tab scroll down to SDI Output section in the list last is SDI connector:  choose Dual Link.  There are other settings for  RGB 4:4:4 etc... in that section.

I don't see the same choices in the Video Input tab so I assume it follows the config from video output but I'm only guessing.  When you click on video input in avid settings it will open the video desktop control panel then navigate as mentioned above.  I have never captured 444 so there is probably the need to choose a project format that is RGB as in 444 not full range video.  Perhaps others have done this.

Let us know what you find out.

Trying to get our DNxIO box to capture Dual Link HD SDI 444 RGB and I can't figure out where the settings are in Media Composer or Blackmagic Desktop Video Setup to make that happen. Neither fine manuals are being of much help on this one. Any clues from out there?

Thanks,
Jay
